For last months we were writing XSL FO rendering 
engine. It is now in alpha ( *not* pre-alpha), and it 
would become beta  *soon*.  We are not supporting 
tables yet, but we are not scared with tables ;-)
Images, lists, footnotes, complex layouts, different 
page-orientations e t.c.  - we already have it.

http://www.renderx.com

Now contains more than 30 testcases with 
source code and results of  rendering to PDF
More tetscases would appear soon.

I suggest visiting that page if you want 
to get some feeling about XSL FOs in
action.

PS. I would be very glad to know about any other 
XSL FO implementation that is not in pre-alpha 
stage. Sometimes I have a strange feeling that 
there is only 3 .fo documents in this world ( and 
2 of them are buggie ). Well - now there is at 
least 30 .fo documents ;-)
